Editorial Reviews

If you want to make a difference with the resources you have, invite Raymond Harris to share his experience on how to be an effective steward. Reading Enduring Wealth will change the way you invest in God’s work in this world.
Stan Jantz, best-selling author; CEO, Come and See Foundation
 

As a Christian who participated in the world of business for over forty years, I always struggled with the integration of my wealth and faith. I greatly admire how Raymond has thoughtfully developed an understanding of wealth from a biblical perspective and has invested his wealth in the kingdom in an intentional way that increases human flourishing. My goal is to integrate many of his beliefs and principles described in these pages into my ministry going forward. This is a must-read for anyone questioning the purpose of work and use of their wealth accumulation.
David Ridley, founder and CEO, Invesco Real Estate; guest speaker; mentor
 

Raymond Harris is the real deal! Read this book, and you will witness a man devoted to stewardship. My friend Raymond wrote Enduring Wealth based on both Scripture and a life of experience (with ups and downs and lessons learned) as he has attempted to be effective and efficient in how he uses the resources God has given him for His glory.
Bob Doll, chief investment officer, Crossmark Global Investments; former chief equity strategist or investment officer, Nuveen, BlackRock, Merrill (formerly Merrill Lynch), and OppenheimerFunds
 

Many men and women create wealth, but few understand its purpose. This book is a treasure map, the shortcut for us to learn what took Raymond Harris years to uncover. As a highly successful architect, Raymond has thought deeply about God’s designs for wealth, but even more importantly, he has learned to live them out. I’m proud to call Raymond Harris a friend and an exemplary gospel patron.
John Rinehart, founder and CEO, Gospel Patrons; author, Gospel Patrons
 

Raymond Harris has the courage to write this needed and excellent book. It contains authentic stories that may challenge your way of thinking about generosity. He shares how to convert earthly assets into kingdom capital that you will be able to enjoy for all eternity.
Howard Dayton, founder, Crown Financial Ministries and Compass—Finances God’s Way; author
 

I’m a richer man after reading this book. I love the way that Raymond has tackled a topic that is on the minds and hearts of all of us. I wholeheartedly recommend this book for every faith-driven entrepreneur and faith-driven investor.
Henry Kaestner, cofounder, Faith Driven Entrepreneur and Faith Driven Investor; cofounder, Sovereign’s Capital, Bandwidth, and Republic Wireless
 

My friend Raymond is as kingdom minded and gospel focused as anyone I know in the business world. He and his family want their lives to count for the few things that will last forever and matter most. This focus drives his and his wife’s every decision. They live within the reality of “to whom much is given much is required,” and this helps them make the most of every opportunity. Their stewardship is bearing enduring fruit, and I have no doubt they will hear our Lord say, “Well done.” God gave them many talents, and they are investing them wisely and offering all the return back to God. You’ll enjoy Raymond’s story in Enduring Wealth.
Todd Peterson, NFL placekicker (1993–2005); chairman, Pro Athletes Outreach; former CEO, Seed Company; founder, illumiNations
 

Raymond presents a new and dynamic perspective on giving and stewardship. His creative use of stories powerfully captures this radical way to invest in God’s kingdom. The resulting approach will change your view of donating and, in the process, put you in a better position to convert your earthly assets into real kingdom capital that will endure through eternity.
Thomas C. Leppert, business executive; former CEO, Turner Corporation; former mayor, Dallas, Texas
